Quick Craft

A quick craft (which resulted in this quick post) happened one sunny day, when Mama had to tinker with the printer ink. Emerging from the ink-encounter with colourful fingertips as well as a beautiful piece of tissue paper, let's just say we got 'inspired' to make some art.

The aforementioned tissue paper

The first art piece

First we used up the leftover ink to create some abstract piece. This Mama thinks it would have been a lot clearer (and less crowded) had Kecil exercised some restrain in her application. As it was, I think when the kid was obviously very enthusiastic about her art, I should just let her be and leave the art lessons for another day. You know, things such as pattern, colour matching, less-is-more... those kind of thing?

Anyway, since we were already outside, we moved on to other methods as well.

We wanted to use leaves as inverted stencils, but perhaps this Mama remembered the technique wrong or something, it did not quite turn out as Mama expected. Which was still OK. Me thinks Kecil still had fun, anyway. I think we should do this more often, as long as Mama can get someone else to clean up. Ha! Oh well... we'll see, we'll see.

So, have you done any arts and craft lately?
